Force them to purchase his freedom, accidentally kill him and have to find a replacement or revive him, force them to break ties with the captors when the captors start getting rid of their prisoners -sold, moved, executed-If you feel like being a little mean have them jump more hurdles by putting them in situations that are much harder/time consuming.</blockquote>
